Where the scholar and the fan collide

Gender Warriors: Reading Contemporary Urban Fantasy is available. I am very proud of the work that Melissa Anyiwo and I did in this text, and our contributors did a phenomenal job with the text. Steve Anyiwo created another amazing piece of art for the cover.

This text is dedicated to the memory of our brilliant friend and fellow aca-superheroine Rho Nichol. In so many ways, this book is informed by our conversations over the years about the genre and the gendered implications at the heart of its creation and reception.

You can check it out on Brill’s webpage, or you can buy it from Amazon. The book is great for fun reading, but it’s also designed to teach. Please consider adapting it in your courses if you teach.
